A CLUMSY burglar gave police a vital clue to his identity after he left his false teeth at the scene of the crime.

Boozed up Jimmy Lee was caught after a police officer recognised the gumsy ex-boxer and noticed his gnashers were missing.

Lee, who has an alcohol problem insisted that he was only breaking into the shop and factory in Lancashire to go to sleep.

Magistrates jailed the culprit for 32 weeks.
